Eagan Montessori Academy South

My daughter started at EMS as an infant. We toured all of the centers in the area and fell in love with EMS on our tour. I loved how passionate the staff was, the curriculum and the fact that they didn’t have an app and could focus on the children. Fast forward 5 years. We continue to love EMS. The teachers are so loving and the leadership is outstanding. We have made friends with the other parents and feel part of a community. My daughter ahead academically and is well prepared to start kindergarten in the fall. My son has been there for 3 year now and we have another starting in the fall. WE LOVE EMS!

Loving, compassionate care! My boys have attended EMS for a couple years and we have had an amazing experience with all the teachers and staff that we have come in contact with. The director Mrs. Ruchika has been like family/partner in raising our boys. She has been flexible and accommodating with my crazy work schedule. My children are greeted by their name and big smiles everyday! You can rest assured your children will be cared for by the most devoted and loving caregivers and teachers! Thank you EMS for molding my boys to not only be academically ready for the world but emotionally with self regulating skills. Five stars!

We transferred our two boys (2yrs & 4yrs) from an in-home daycare to Eagan Montessori Academy Oct 2021, and we are incredibly pleased, grateful and impressed with this school. Our boys, not only enjoy going to school, but they have developed and learned so much in the short time we have been there. The teachers are welcoming, loving and understanding (not to mention hardworking). We highly recommend this school because there is a lovely balance between learning, playing and discovery.

We adore Eagan Montessori South!  The teachers all show such genuine love and compassion for our daughter and to us parents!  My daughter still goes back and gives hugs to her teacher from 2 classrooms ago.  We have attended a couple centers in the past and there is no comparison in regards to the care and standards they have here.  There has been very little turn over in staff, which really speaks volumes to the leadership and value that is put towards each teacher.  Not only do they show high levels of love and care for the children, they provide solid curriculum and my daughter has learned so much by being here.  She will be very well prepared to enter kindergarten in the fall.  I couldn't speak more highly of EMS.  I think I will be more sad to leave here in the fall than my daughter, that's how much I enjoy all the staff.  They really make you feel apart of a family.  I highly recommend EMS!!

We've been bringing our son here for a bit over a year (our son is nearly two). It's been wonderful and I can't say enough positive things about the staff. The caliber of the staff has been great in each room as our son has grown and progressed through the various rooms. I'm consistently impressed at the how much my son learns (just the other day he started counting) and how orderly the toddlers are in the room. It's very impressive to walk into a room with kids around 2 years old and see them all quietly sitting and eating at a table.
I highly recommend this Montessori and we will be sending any other children we have here.

We have moved quite a bit for my husband&#39;s job, so we have seen many daycares/preschools. We wanted to enroll our 3.5 yo son in a preschool that actually focused on education and social development. We could not be happier with EMAS! My son has been a student here for about a month now. They are very attentive to both my son and the parents. Communication is fabulous. We get frequent emails and the teachers talk to me all the time. The director checks in too, asking if I have concerns, how the adjustment is going, etc. my son has already learned so much and he looks forward to going to school every day. He does five half days and he ends up missing the afternoon craft. The teacher overheard him telling me he didn&#39;t have the art work from the previous day hanging on the wall, and she said she&#39;d do the craft with him the next morning. I figured although she meant well, there was no way she&#39;d have time to do a one in one craft with my son. Amazingly, she did! My son was so happy and I am beyond impressed with her dedication to making sure my son felt included. I can&#39;t say enough. My son loves the food, he gets plenty of play time and lots of education. He&#39;s happy and so am I.

They are great with the kids and very organized, the only drawback is that they will close due to snow days which as of recently has been 3 separate days in about a months time. This obviously poses many issues for parents with their employers/schedules.
